Do not demonize people in the past who do not meet current norms. There will never be anybody who will meet those standards.

So you believe the entirety of the United States' existence is an affront to humanity as it's very foundation is as evil as Nazism, right? Nothing America ever stood for was any better rhan the worst of humanity.

It is telling that you can so lightly equate my comment to waving off Nazism as if across the developed world Nazism was the norm of the time. Yes, most peoples in the European culture were naturally Nazis, and only a few morally sound people were against it. I see your troll... And I set your straw man on fire.
